Pittsburgh EMS Rescue 2

Rescue 2 was happy to receive a surprise visit from Millie this evening. Millie was accompanied by Doctor Lawler, who is one of our EMS Physicians.

We, in PEMS were blessed to have many members with many, supernatural talents. One of our own, Mike Y. was extraordinarily gifted in finding humor, during sometimes difficult times. Woe be the medic who, caught in a predicament, was a victim of Mike's, humerous illustrative mind. All in fun, never in malice. Our colleague, Bob Full, was immortalized in a few of these "Life on the Edge" masterpieces.

It is with profound sadness that Pittsburgh EMS Rescue 2 reports the passing of former Rescue Chief Robert Full. Chief Full was an original Pittsburgh Paramedic hired in 1975 and served the City for more than 20 years. Chief Full also served Allegheny County and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in Emergency Management. Chief Full had an enormous impact on the development of the Pittsburgh EMS Rescue Division and the Pennsylvania USAR Strike Team 1. He will be greatly missed.

Rest easy Chief, we'll take it from here.
